<p><center><b>Terry Crews on addiction, physical fitness, and why he works so much</b></center></p>
<p>Terry Crews is the kind of performer that has his hand in all different facets of the entertainment industry. He's Andy Samberg's co-star on <i>Brooklyn Nine Nine</i>, and he played the president in <i>Idiocracy</i>. He was also the screaming muscle man in all those Old Spice ads. His latest role is in <i>Sandy Wexler</i>, the new Adam Sandler comedy on Netflix. But, before all that, Terry was a football player from Flint, Michigan - like not just high school and college - he played on four NFL teams over 5 years. He was picked by the LA Rams in the 11th round of the 1991 NFL Draft, and in 1996 he played his last season ever for the Eagles.</p>
<p>Terry and Jesse discuss football, and the culture that surrounds the player in training and on the field. They discuss what life was like for Terry after leaving the NFL, and how that time shaped his relationship to fitness. They also discuss his childhood, his relationship to success, and why he works so much.</p>
<p>You can find Terry's new movie <a href="https://www.netflix.com/title/80126569"><i>Sandy Wexler</i></a> on Netflix now. </p>

<p><center><b>Amber Tamblyn on her new movie <i>Paint It Black</i></b></center></p>
<p>Amber Tamblyn has had a really interesting career. She is the daughter of actor Russ Tamblyn and she appeared in her first ever movie when she was only 12 years old. She's landed roles on TV shows like <i>Joan of Arcadia</i>, <i>General Hospital</i>, <i>Inside Amy Schumer</i>, as well as playing the beloved Tibby character in the <i>Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants</i> movies. Tamblyn is also a poet. She's had three books of poetry published, the latest of which, <i>Dark Sparkler</i>, came out a couple years ago and features photos by David Lynch. Now, Tamblyn has written and directed her first ever feature length film. It's called <i>Paint it Black</i> and is based on the Janet Fitch novel of the same name. It tells the story of Josie, whose boyfriend Michael dies suddenly before the film begins.</p>
<p>Amber and Jesse talk about what it was like to direct her first feature film, and the theme of death throughout much of her published works. They talk about what it was like to be a child actor, and the spark of creativity that becoming a new mother has given her.</p>
